A Drunken Mind Speaks a Sober Heart

I am scared and fearless at the same time I am sober and drunk all together I am wild and conservative and just plain nuts And I pull stunts like I'll live forever. I do comepletely stupid stuff And I don't really care what happens If I survive, that's another chance To do something and see if I crash it. I am sick and tired all at once I am healthy and energetic I can go all day, I crash after an hour I get right back up and forget it. I am hardworking and lazy I do forgive and forget I live in the moment, I plan every second Make decisions I know I'll regret. I want to love and be loved I want to be left all alone I want someone there for me I want to rule from my place on a throne. I want to rock this world And make my name unforgettable I want to be known by no one I hate the inevitable. I don't want to be remembered Yet I want my legacy to live on I want to be hated by some people And I want the haters to be gone. I believe in passion for something But not in real true love I don't believe in fairy tales But I wish on stars above. I am careful and careless I take risks and then again, I don't I try to make the best of life But wait for it, I won't. These words I speak now today Are reckless and torn apart I sound crazy and indecisive, But a drunken minds speaks a sober heart.
